We have investigated magnetic and magneto-optical properties of two-dimensional (2D) ${\mathrm{Ti}}_{0.8}{\mathrm{Co}}_{0.2}{\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ nanosheet, a new nanosized titanium oxide derived from layered titanates by exfoliation. Despite heavy doped 2D system in the dielectric ground, the multilayer films of ${\mathr…
Nanoparticles of superparamagnetic magnetite have been strongly attached to single-walled carbon nanohorns (SWNHs) by using a simple method, namely the deposition of iron acetate clusters on SWNHs followed by heat treatment. The attached magnetite nanoparticles induce remarkable darkening of the magnetic resonance ima…
▪ Abstract This review discusses the preparation, characterization, and application of amorphous porous mixed oxides, a rapidly growing class of materials with wide applications and a huge potential for the tailoring of chemical composition, microstructure, porosity, and surface properties. In contrast to crystalline…
A single cross-reactive conjugated polymer (poly(thiophene) 1) generates unique spectral patterns in response to structurally similar diamines. Multivariate statistics are used to deconvolute subtle variations in these spectral responses, allowing for identification and quantification of the analytes with >99% accurac…
Highly efficient separation and purification of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) from PHA-containing cell mass is essential to production of the bioplastics from renewable resources in a cost-effective, environmentally friendly way. Based on selective dissolution of non-PHA cell mass (NPCM) by protons in aqueous solution…
This paper presents a comprehensive evaluation of carbon nanotube bundle interconnects from all aspects critical to VLSI circuits - performance, power dissipation and reliability - while taking into account practical limitations of the technology. A novel delay model for CNT bundle interconnects has been developed, us…
This work represents the first electro-thermal study of metallic single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) for interconnect applications. Experimental data and careful modeling reveal that self-heating is of significance in short (1 < L < 10 /spl mu/m) nanotubes under high-bias. The low-bias resistance of micron scale SWNT…
Exposure of hydrazine vapor to conjugated-polymer films reduces the small number of oxidized trap sites that quench excitons. This scheme is effective for trace hydrazine detection with a detection limit of less than 1 ppm. The introduction of an oxidizing dopant quenches the polymer emission and permits detection of…
A novel type of "X-shaped" two-dimensional electro-optic (EO) chromophore with extended conjugation has been synthesized and characterized. This chromophore is found to exhibit a remarkably blue-shifted optical maximum (357 nm in CH(2)Cl(2)) while maintaining a very large first hyperpolarizability (beta). Hyper-Raylei…
We report on the first synthesis of alkanethiolate-protected Au55 (11 kDa), which has been a "missing" counterpart of Schmid's Au55(PR3)12Cl6. Au:SCx clusters (x = 12, 18) were prepared by the reaction of alkanethiol (CxSH) with polymer-stabilized Au clusters ( approximately 1.3 nm) and subsequently incubated in neat…
Numerical calculations of lattice thermal conductivity are reported for the binary alloys NiPd and NiPt. The present work is a continuation of an earlier paper by us [PRB, 72, 214207 (2005)]which had developed a theoretical framework for the calculation of configuration-averaged lattice thermal conductivity and therma…
In this paper we present an approach aimed at calculating the optical dielectric constant of crystalline insulators both at the Hartree-Fock, and correlated levels. Our scheme employs a real-space methodology, employing Wannier functions as the basic building blocks. The scheme has been applied to compute the optical…
We propose a scheme to realize coherent control of spin states of molecule magnet, Ni$_4$. We introduce transverse magnetic fields with special frequencies. When the frequencies of transverse magnetic fields match in some conditions, we obtain dark states in Ni$_4$ molecules. Through adjusting the magnitude of magneti…
The principal theme of this paper is that anomalously slow, super-Arrhenius relaxations in glassy materials may be activated processes involving chains of molecular displacements. As pointed out in a preceding paper with Lemaitre, the entropy of critically long excitation chains can enable them to grow without bound,…
Tremendous changes of the structure of Rh particles occurred during partial methane oxidation to hydrogen and carbon monoxide over a 2.5 wt % Rh/Al(2)O(3) catalyst upon ignition of the catalytic reaction. Furthermore, near the ignition temperature a variation in the Rh-valence state along the catalyst bed was observed…
We have developed a simple method to fabricate a gradient from superhydrophobicity to superhydrophilicity. It is based on the controlled self-assembled monolayer consisting of a thiol molecule on a gold surface and the amplifying effect of the wetting property on a rough surface. Using a relatively dilute HS(CH2)11CH3…
We report on the fabrication and electroluminescence of an n-ZnO nanorod/p-Si heterojunction. ZnO nanorods were grown on p-type Si substrates employing an easy low-temperature aqueous solution method. As-grown ZnO nanorods showed good crystallinity and a preferable c axial orientation. Electroluminescent devices were…
▪ Abstract Hydrogen strongly affects the properties of electronic materials. Interstitial monatomic hydrogen is always electrically active and usually counteracts the prevailing conductivity of the semiconductor. In some materials, however, hydrogen acts as a source of doping. We describe the mechanisms that govern in…
Tetradentate Schiff base ligands H2L (H2saltmen, H2salen, H2-5-Brsalen, and H2-3,5-Brsalen), derived from the condensation of the corresponding salicylaldehyde or its derivatives with 1,1,2,2-tetramethylethyldiamine or 1, 2-diaminoethane, reacted with Mn(III) acetate or perchlorate salts and sodium azide or sodium cya…
The problem studied in this paper is to obtain the equations describing sound propagation in a consolidated porous medium filled with superfluid, determine the elastic coefficients, appearing in the equations, in terms of physically measurable quantities, and calculate the propagation velocities of transverse and long…
